Child percentage

[Fishyfish22]

I'm so confused on how the percentage works for child in sync/anti sync for vortechs

I set the child to 100, thinking it'll make the pump just match what the main is doing for nutrient transport or gyre. Instead, it goes at 100% of its strength. Sand all over the place, torches ticked off, etc.

Do I have to copy the schedule and adjust the flow one segment at a time? I dont want to set it to a fixed amount because my main will usually go around 50-70% during the day and then 30% at night.

If Ai light, the child should share the same settings as mine did

Oh I should've mentioned, I'm using vortechs! One mp40+1mp60 on each side

Should be the same. Im sure there are hints and video on you tube

I set the child (left mp60) to 100% of the parent (right mp60) which is at 60%, see the difference in gph. It's also drastically stronger in the tank too, so it'snot just a "ecotech readig wrong" the same thing happens with the mp40s as I set them to follow the parent.

Only thing keeping me from adding them to the mxm with the radions is the lack of sync/anti-sync

I agree there should not be a variance. Unfortunately, about a decade ago Ecotech did me very wrong and I dropped everything if theirs I had. I even sold their product and know everything they have but not so much the newest program aspect

This used to be the way it worked, but during wxm collaboration, they changed it to the other way.

The child @ 100% will go full blast...

I've been using the WXM module with Vortech's for a long time and I typically program one and copy it to the second. Then I change the second one's pulse phase to anti sync. As far as I know you always have to set the percentages for each and there is no inherited percentage. If you have pulse set to 50 and anti sync set to 100 that's exactly the percent they are going to run at. The same is true of the interval setting. I do also have a MXM module now but I'm just using for Radions with no plans to add the chip to anything.

I have the mxm, I want to add the vortechs onto it but I don't want to do so before the sync/anti sync get released on it

All the problems I'm having are through mobius rn

Yeah I have 8 year old MP40wQD's on WXM. I'll ride that setup as long as possible and won't switch to mQD until they die or the WXM dies. MXM is also somewhat incomplete for lighting. I have a Vectra M2 and don't ever see putting in a chip. I only ever used Mobius for the lights and that was a pain with frequent sync issues. They did put out an update to MXM the other day but have yet to see what it fixed.

I meant to say mxm not wxm

Lights don't usually blow sand around...
